I am about 4 weeks pregnant and today I had like a foul (stinky) unusual smell to my urine. Is there anything wrong? Is this normal? It does not burn when I pee and it does not itch down there or anything like that. Can you have any type of discharge while pregnant?

Please tell your doctor immediately. You don't mess around when you are pregnant. Your baby deserves for you to take every precaution you can to ensure that it is born healthy. Congratulations. Babies are so amazing.

Pregnant women will have unusual discharge, but if it's really foul-smelling, even if you don't have itching or rashes, it's probably a yeast infection. Those are very prevalent in pregnant women. I had them all the time. To be sure, you should go to your DOCTOR who can give you a licensed, medical opinion, because it could be something bad wrong.

If you have any concerns about that baby you should always go to the hospital no matter what. When I was pregnant my doctor told me that. I know when I was pregnant I'd have a white discharge all the time, but I was told that was a good thing. I'm not so sure about the foul discharge. Call you labor and delivery at the hospital you plan on having you baby at, and they'll have a nurse call you back. Oh and remember to drink lots of water while you're pregnant.Good luck ;) and congrats on your baby!

your whole body is changing and everything will start to change, even "down there smells". i hated the smell i took on, and my husband says i get an overall "pregnant" smell about me when i was pregnant. It is actually also normal to get more discharge than before you were pregnant after you get pregnant, so don't be alarmed if it increases or stays the same. If it gets too bad of a smell, you can visit your obgyn just to make sure everything is in order. meanwhile, 2 showers a day really helps!!! congrats on your new baby!

It is possible that your urine doesn't really smell different, but that hormones are making your nose different.
Weird as this may be have your partner (or a friend) smell it if possible.
If it really does smell foul to an unhormonal nose I would go to a doctor. Foul smell usually indicates infection even in the absence of other symptoms.

Actually, you might still have a bladder infection, even if it isn't itchy or burning. However, I know I had a weird kind of discharge that smelled funny too and I didn't have a bladder infection, just an irritation. Drink lots of water and cranberry juice...make sure it is 100% juice...sugars in the 'cocktail' kind will only make things worse. Good Luck and I hope things clear up! Mine did, and I a 20 weeks now yay! Best of wishes to you.

The first rule when you are pregged out is that anything is possible. Different woman have different cravings and symptoms, remember you are growing an entire human being inside you so don't be too alarmed, my woman had the exact foul urine thing and she was fine through out her pregnancy, but always ask your Dr.Congradulations on the baby and take care of yourself.

Go to the doctor and have two things checked out. You may have a bladder infection or more likely bacterial vaginosis. Both will need to be treated immediately. Make sure to inform the doctor that you are pregnant and how far along you are. Good luck and don't let this go untreated.

Sweetie, you're overreacting. Your body does crazy things while you're pregnant. Your sense of smell becomes especially keen...along with prenatal pills that may give your urine a weird smell. Unless you develop other symptoms, I really wouldn't worry about it---and I've been pregnant 4 times! I know it's scary having a baby...you worry so much...but this is really not something to worry about.

It is possible that you have a UTI. It is also possible that you can smell the HCG that is in your urine (some women do). It's also possible that any change in your diet, like eating asparagus may change your urine smell. maybe it's the prenatal. Try switching brands. The best thing to do is ask your Dr. he can at least rule out anything serious like and infection.

Pregnancy can change the body, and you should not be alarmed. The next time you go for your check up, tell your doctor just to be on the safe side. But again, dont be alarmed it is natural to have sudden changes and unusual smells, your hormones are adjusting to the baby, your still very early.
